Ambition Lord

Chapter 11 The Potbellied Mare

At the beginning of July, Qinghuangling.

In the early morning, a faint ray of sunlight shines on the thick castle through the misty morning fog.

A large number of people gathered in front of the gate of the castle. Today Allen will go to Musen City, and Mrs. Lisa is leading the crowd to bid farewell to Allen.

Gently kissed Alisa who was stuck in his arms, and sent her to Mrs. Lisa's arms, Allen set off with the team.

Since Alan brought twenty cavalry guards and some territorial caravan personnel this time, there were a large number of people, and the caravan personnel were all driving carriages and walking slowly, which greatly delayed the speed of the team.

One day is too late for Mu Senling!
It seems that we have to stay in Tieshiling for one night before we set off!Allen thought to himself.

The road from Qinghuangling to Musen City passes through Tieshiling, so Alan's convoy must pass through Tieshiling.

It's not that Alan didn't think about detours, but it takes nearly three times as long to detour from other places, and they are all country roads, making it very difficult for the convoy to pass.

In the end, Allen decided to pass through the iron stone collar. Considering that the iron stone collar has no knight combat power and almost no standing army, he is not worried that Baron Curritt will take risks.

Baron Kurit was taken care of by Viscount Bernard because his territory was close to Musen, and almost no baron dared to attack him openly.

Therefore, the Iron Stone Territory basically does not have a standing army. When it is necessary to use troops, Baron Kurit will ask Viscount Bernard for assistance.

There are fixed rules among the nobles. When passing through other people's territories, as long as the title is not higher than them, they must first visit the lord of the territory.

Allen also needed to visit Baron Curritt when he passed by Iron Stone Collar, and Allen didn't think about it.

Temporarily confusing Baron Curritt is still very beneficial to Alan. Although Alan is not good at falsehoods among nobles, it is not that he does not understand at all.

At noon, Allen brought the convoy to Iron Stone Town.

On the way here, Allen sent cavalry to Iron Stone Fort to inform him of his future visit.

I saw a short middle-aged man with an ugly face and a smile on his face standing in front of Tieshi Town, followed by a crowd of people.

This is the Iron Stone Baron Kurit, and Allen dismounted and gave him a noble salute.

"Thank you, Baron Curritt, for welcoming me. Please forgive me for coming to see you rashly." Allen said sincerely.

"No, no, no... It's my honor for Baron Allen to come to my iron stone collar. Please enter the castle. I have already prepared the kitchen for lunch. Please don't be too polite." Baron Kurit had a genuine smile on his face. , with a flattered look on his face.

Allen complained in his heart. If he didn't know the true face of this guy, he might have been deceived. This acting skill can be called the level of acting emperor, and Allen was willing to bow down.

Baron Currit led Allen to the hall for dinner.

Exquisite reliefs, large fireplaces, exquisite murals on the walls, marble stairs... all show the wealth of Baron Curritt.

Seeing the obedient look of the maid servant, Allen looked at Baron Curritt.

"Don't mind Baron Allen, they are just a little scared seeing Baron Allen for the first time."

Allen didn't delve into this topic anymore. After all, he was a baron, so how could he be afraid of being like this?

Mostly because of the fear of Kurit, right?But Allen didn't go into it anymore. After all, he was a guest, and it wouldn't be fun to destroy the superficial friendly relationship.

For lunch, the food prepared by Baron Curritt was much richer than the usual Alan's food, and there was even a roast swan.

This Kurit is really rich!
You must know that roast swan is not easy to eat, but in order to avoid the recurrence of Kurit's old plan, Allen identified a piece of each dish to prevent poisoning.

In the afternoon, after the whole team rested, the team continued to set off, preparing to spend the night in the wheatgrass village on the border of Tieshiling.

……

Not long after Allen left, in Baron Curritt's study.

"Angie, do you think that kid noticed something?" Kurit said to Angie with some concern.

Don't worry, my lord, just now my subordinates have found out through the spies of Qinghuangling that Baron Allen is indeed going to Musen City, but he just passes by Tieshiling, Anji explained.

"Sternly tell the spies of Qing Huang Ling not to expose it." Kurit said seriously.

In the evening, the team came to Mai Cao Village. Mai Cao Village made a living by breeding cattle and horses. It was also the only place in the entire Viscounty where horses could be raised. Mai Cao Village had thousands of acres of grassland, which could be used to breed cattle and horses.

The village head of Mai Cao Village with white hair and a cane has come to greet him. Although Mai Cao Village is not under the rule of Qinghuang, but Alan is a baron, the village head needs to come out to greet him anyway.

Allen and the team followed the village chief to the center of the village. A group of villagers formed a circle, talking to each other, and there was a lot of noise.

Alan walked over curiously first.

"Get out of the way, this is Baron Allen!" The village chief shouted.

Hearing that the baron was coming, the villagers consciously moved out of the way.

Facing Alan, he saw a horse with a big belly lying in the center. Alan had never seen a horse with such a big belly, and the length of the belly was almost longer than the length of the horse's legs.

Looking at the sad-looking man sitting next to the horse, Allen guessed that this man should be the owner of the horse.

"Is this horse yours?"

"Yes, Lord Baron." The man really praised.

"Is this horse pregnant?" Allen suppressed his surprise and asked the man.

"My lord, I also... don't know, since my mare's belly is getting bigger and bigger, I also feel pregnant. But... this..." The man fell silent while talking.

Allen was very interested in this horse, so he used Yuanyuan beads to explore——

The mare—the body is pregnant with a young horse with the blood of the sub-dragon of the wind element, and the body is weak.

Treatment method - feeding wind element crystals to maintain the energy needed for the young horse to gestate.

……

Allen's heart was full of turmoil, and this mare was lucky enough to be passed by the wind element dragon... Dragon species are really not picky eaters!

The most important thing is that the young horse carried by the mare has the blood of the wind element dragon!
It's worth it!

must!Definitely get it back!Allen yelled in his heart.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Allen looked at the man.

"I want this horse, and I will pay you double the price."

"Really...Really? Okay...OK, I agree." The man looked excited.

"Do you want more? There are several similar mares in my family?" the man asked in a low voice.

"..." Allen was so excited that he was about to pass out, and today he was lucky.

In the end, Allen bought seven pregnant mares in the man's house with fourteen gold dragons. Allen did not give up and asked the cavalry from door to door if there were any similar mares, but they returned empty-handed.

morning.

After renting a few carriages and sending five cavalrymen to escort the seven mares back to Qinghuang Territory to settle down, Alan continued to set off with the convoy.

For this trip to Musen City, in addition to buying fire element spar, I also want to get wind element spar.

The convoy left Wheatgrass Village slowly, and Alan on horseback was proud of himself. Fortunately, he chose to lead it from Tieshi, otherwise such a great benefit would be lost.
